Abstract (en)

An imaging apparatus includes a casing including a base unit and a cover unit, a camera unit disposed on the base unit in the casing, a camera cover disposed on the base unit in the casing and being in contact with and covering the camera unit, and a biasing member configured to bias the camera cover and to be deformed by being pressed by the cover unit when the cover unit is attached to the base unit. A frictional force between the camera unit and the camera cover increases due to an increase in a biasing force applied from the biasing member to the camera cover according to the deformation of the biasing member.
